TESTIMONIALS
‘I am delighted to recommend Joanna as a trainer. They provided Dismantling Bias and Courageous Conversations training to our leadership team at UnLtd. Joanna quickly built trust and showed a real willingness to get to know our organisation which allowed for effective conversations on the day which they guided with thought provoking topics and questions. Our leaders felt very comfortable to express their opinion and learn from others. We didn't have any major differences of humanity/opinion in our workshops but I imagine Joanna would be able to facilitate them well in a respectful way.
It was a real pleasure working with Joanna, they are a wonderfully warm and insightful trainer; kept to the time and the subject and created a really open and safe space to learn and contribute.
Joanna has left us with valuable tools that our leaders will make the most of.
I look forward to working with them in the future.’

'In 2020 we were looking for a diversity & inclusion training provide to partner with for the long term. We did not want a ‘tick box’ compliance provider but someone who really brought value and passion to our heads. From the first session our leadership team had with JYP Consulting we knew the fit to our agency and people was perfect. Since then we have had multiple sessions at all levels of the business and the partnership continues to grow.'

‘At the end of last year, I was lucky enough to participate in a series of training sessions on inclusive leadership that Joanna ran for the leadership team at my organisation. Through the training sessions Joanna ensured we improved our knowledge around microaggressions, discrimination, unconscious bias and allyship while creating a safe space to ask questions and share experiences. I took up the opportunity to participate in some one-on-one coaching which complemented the training sessions really well. Joanna’s incisive questions and thoughtful observations helped me to understand and articulate what I needed to change to become a more inclusive leader, and then hold me to account for putting that into practice. I’ve attended lots of training sessions over the years, and it’s rare to be able to pinpoint changes in my behaviour so clearly as a result. I’d definitely recommend working with Joanna.’

‘Joanna has been facilitating virtual workshops to all levels of SAGE over the past year. They create a safe space that allows our employees to engage and immerse themselves in the content, whilst creating opportunity for conversations that help challenge perceptions and biases. Joanna delivers thought provoking content in a mindful, thoughtful and respectful manner and is a valued partner at SAGE.’
